whats the fores and against running a dump valve,i havent got one fitted was just worried about damaging the turbo

 

i HATE the sound dump valves make but this is just my opinion, id much rather stick with the standard re-circ valve, or on the small turbo the standard dump valve which is actually very good, its placed nicely on the comp housing, but me personally i dont like dump valves.

 

the car dosent have one fitted at all atm,i hate the sound as well

 

is it large turbo or small turbo? if its large stick with comp surge unless you have a T4, T4s acutally need em but smaller turbos dont

 

its a large turbo t38

 

Funny you should say that. According to the service history, mine used to have one fitted, then I came across the receipt for the new hybrid turbo at £1200, which clearly stated 'replace turbo with TT hybrid due to dump valve failure.'

Now that statements enough for me never to have a dump valve again. Besides, I think there a bit out of date now, and maybe even seen as 'uncool'. Just my opinion of course.

 

So do I need a dump valve or not...? Rather not have one if I dont have to... I've got big turbo Escort with dark green injectors etc.

 

looks like not bud if the turbo is smaller than a t4
